    Default html option

    can anyone please tell me the code for the html funtion in which you hide something in a field, until someone presses a button above, and the hidden text is revealed? I know that sounds a little vague, but I would really like to figure that out
    "You must know, then, that there are two methods of fight, the one by law, the other by force: the first method is that of men, the second of beasts; but as the first method is often insufficient, one must have recourse to the second. It is therefore necessary for a prince to know well how to use both the beast and the man.

    Hi Owen Glyndwr,
    The code for collapsible text is:

    [ex][/ex]

    Hope this helps you, cheers!

    That would be the button with the "wrap [SPOIL] tags around target". On my computer it's weirdly the "B" button on the right

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    see?


    Otherwise, you can type |SPOIL| |/SPOIL| around your text, replacing the pipes by square brackets!

    testing 'ex'


    Omanes, you're right, it works too, without speaking of "spoiler alert" (I don't know what a spoiler alert is, anyway!

    Hi Caerfanan,
    The most useful, yet neglected peice of code in the Org world is the [noparse][/noparse] tag!

    Example use:
    [noparse][spoil][/spoil][/noparse]
    Outcome:
    [spoil][/spoil]

    Hope this helps you, cheers!

    BTW, A spoiler is a document, review or comment that discloses the ending or some key surprise, or twist in a story. Good writing policy suggests that one should warn of spoilers before discussing them, so that readers who wish to do so may experience the surprises for themselves rather than seeing them from other people.
